Pulse Nine is a company that was established in 2017 and has been developing various contents. We have created a ‘virtual human’ based on our accumulated research and development experience in the field of 3D graphics technology, and based on this, we are seeking to diversify content and applying it to our business. As a representative example, last year, the first virtual K-pop group ‘ETERNITY’, with outstanding looks and a unique worldview, was unveiled and a virtual idol entertainment business was launched.
Pulse Nine’s Eternity is a virtual human group created with their proprietary ‘Deep Real AI’. Deep Real AI is a realistic virtual character AI service developed to reflect the needs for real-time broadcasting of virtual influencers in the live commerce market, and is characterized by the application of Pulse Nine’s proprietary image data pre-processing process.

Based on this, when learning a virtual character creation model, high-quality modeling is possible in a relatively short period of time, and the result has the distinction of being able to implement not only basic speech and activities, but even ‘mukbang’, which requires high technical skills.
Pulse Nine plans to target the global market through Eternity, a virtual K-pop girl group created by concentrating its technology. Starting with their first song ‘I’m real’ in March last year, they have released various singles and music videos, and as a result, a fandom called ‘Eternal’ was spontaneously created in 3 countries, including Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, and South America. The company explains that based on this popularity, it will develop a full-scale ‘culture technology show business’ business.
A Pulse Nine official said, “We expect to be able to increase the influence of our content and technology at this CES. Afterwards, we plan to expand our market dominance through vertical integration not only in sales but also in technology, content, and distribution structure,” he said. “Based on future performance, we will continue to reinvest in the development of our own characters and technologies, and use this as a driving force to target the global B2C market.” “The goal is to build a virtuous cycle structure.”
